SonaLab - Real-Time Vocal Analysis Software
(((PHILOSOPHY)))

Core Philosophy · The Three Balances

Every SonaLab analysis converges on three judgments: Phonation Balance, Dynamic Balance and Airflow Balance. Parameters are the raw material, charts are the windows, balances are the verdict.

The three faces of the prism are Phonation Balance, Dynamic Balance and Airflow Balance. The base holds the voice parameters, the middle stacks all 29 charts on L0–L3 tiers, and near the apex sit the three balance judgments. Points along the edges are parameters shared by two faces — 44 nodes and 48 relations in all.

Phonation Balance

发声平衡

Depth and ring together, held steady. The composite score reads resonance depth, singer’s formant and fold thickness, then subtracts compensatory throat tension.

Parameters

H1–H2第一谐波与第二谐波的能量差。数值高偏厚,数值低偏薄。Parameter guide
F1第一共振峰。偏低对应更深的共鸣与更低的喉位。Parameter guide
F2第二共振峰。和 F1 一起决定元音与舌位前后。Parameter guide
Larynx height喉头高低。发声平衡要求喉位相对稳定,而不是靠上提代偿。Parameter guide
Throat-voice energy喉外代偿造成的挤压成分。发声平衡评分会扣掉这一项。Parameter guide
SPR歌手共振峰比。2–4 kHz 高频能量与整体能量的比值,读声音的金属芯与穿透力。Shared edge · used here for ring: whether the 2–4 kHz metal core is present and strong enough.Parameter guide
NAQ归一化振幅商,读声门闭合效率——既不挤死也不漏气的程度。Shared edge · closure efficiency feeds this composite score, not just the airflow face.Parameter guide

L3 · Expert

H1-H2 Harmonic Ratiochart厚薄曲线。看声带是偏厚、偏薄,还是停在中间。
Throat Voice Warningchart喉外肌代偿超标时亮起。平衡分会被直接拉低。

Dynamic Balance

动态平衡

From soft to loud, brightness (SPR) stays on a level track — never suddenly dull and breathy, never squeezed and bright.

Parameters

Loudness传入的音量。动态平衡看的是音量变的时候,音色有没有一起散掉或挤死。Parameter guide
Jitter周期间的音高抖动。过大说明声带振动不稳。Parameter guide
Shimmer周期间的振幅抖动。和 Jitter 一起读声音稳不稳。Parameter guide
Vibrato rate颤音每秒来回的次数。稳定颤音大约落在 5.5–7.5 Hz。Parameter guide
Vibrato extent颤音上下偏离音高的幅度,通常大约 ±25–50 音分。Parameter guide
SPR歌手共振峰比。2–4 kHz 高频能量与整体能量的比值,读声音的金属芯与穿透力。Shared edge · used here as the brightness axis: SPR should not jump as volume sweeps soft to loud.Parameter guide

Waveformchart振幅随时间的变化,先看见强弱,再看音色有没有跟着变形。

Airflow Balance

气流平衡

From low to high pitch, efficiency (NAQ) stays in the high-efficiency channel: neither pressed nor leaky.

Parameters

GNE声门噪声激励。越高,漏气感越明显。Parameter guide
Onset slope声音起振的快慢。太猛是挤着起,太慢是漏着起。Parameter guide
NAQ归一化振幅商,读声门闭合效率——既不挤死也不漏气的程度。Shared edge · defines the efficient channel: NAQ separates pressed, flow and leaky phonation.Parameter guide
